Comment #2 on issue 329 by OrbisVicis: Actions.UpdatePointer becomes confused, cursor jumps everywhere http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=329 I wasn't sure how to get the patch, so I just installed the latest darcs version.. and I'm not sure: The cursor jumping in Spiral is much better: it doesnt perpetually loop, but dies away very soon after (usually less than a second, I think) the mouse has stopped moving. I can't decide if it's the same bug, or if UpdatePointer can't keep up with how fast I change focus, or a bit of both. Sometimes I notice the cursor jumping between two windows I've only crossed once. If I move the mouse somewhat slower, I think I get an idea of what happens. I move my cursor from one window, through a second, through a third. The UpdatePointer logHook only kicks in when I've reached the third window and moves my mouse back to the second window. If I keep moving the cursor it won't end up where I expect it because UpdatePointer has reset its location, so two effects: 1). The cursor does not travel as far as the mouse 2). After non-linear mouse moves the cursor ends up in a totally unexpected location Just a theory, and no, I am *not* playing roulette with my mouse. The crazy cursor in accordion seems to be easier to create (and still endlessly looping), but probably related to the spiral bug. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
